This is what we do...

When it comes to kids...

We Never Quit

Every day for over thirty years, the Children’s Law Center has dedicated itself to advocating for Colorado’s abused, neglected and at-risk children. We are passionate legal and social work professionals with expertise in child welfare law. We have a strong reputation in the legal and child welfare communities and work tirelessly to establish caring, personal relationships with the kids we represent and fight for their best interests.

Every kid deserves an advocate — someone to walk with them through times of crisis and beyond. When it comes to kids, we never quit.

Education Program

The right to a high quality education is for all kids, regardless of their circumstances. We come alongside kids who need someone in their corner to make sure their education rights are being honored.

Caregiver Advocacy Program

Domestic Violence Program

Studies show a dramatic correlation between domestic violence and child abuse. In the only program of its kind in the country, we advocate for kids in civil protection order hearings to prevent further trauma.

Young Adult Legal Advocacy Program

Youth who have experienced foster care, homelessness, or other trauma face many obstacles as they transition to adulthood. We work to remove barriers by providing assistance on civil legal matters that frequently impact these populations.

Other Programs

Trauma-Informed Yoga Program

Bloom Yoga focuses on the mental and physical benefits of yoga for children and youth, with a focus on relating yoga to address trauma symptoms or other difficult behaviors. Bloom Yoga applies evidence-based, trauma informed approaches to teaching yoga.

Youth Empowerment Program

Positive change in the child welfare comes not only through the efforts of innovative professionals, but also through the powerful voices of young people who have experienced it firsthand. Through leadership and advocacy training, as allies, we support current and former foster youth actively seeking to improve the foster care system at both the state and national levels.

The Children’s Law Center staff, especially Kacie Mulhern, is knowledgeable, thorough and perceptive when addressing the best interest of a vulnerable child, but they are also mindful of the feelings and vulnerabilities of the adults involved.
